At the lower-levels, it is critically important to unit-task, to focus exclusively on one particular skill and get it right. With many of my students who are rated 300-800, I will focus exclusively on their forehand loop or backhand push for 20-30 minutes and give them homework on doing shadow strokes or robot practice for just one skill at a time.
Great job to all the Samson Dubina Table Tennis Academy players who competed in the Steel City Open. In the 89 player tournament, the SDTTA players won 33% of all the trophies and 46% of all the prize money. Keep working hard!
I'll see you this Tuesday for group classes and see you this Thursday for league night!
